The only thing you got right is that A comes first and E comes last, but you haven't even proved that as well as I did...
Gentleman, gentleman...F's manager is outside the door and he has a nice brown paper bag for all of you.
B has win's over your number 3 and 4. D has wins over number 4, 5. C has wins over number 1 and 5. Lets start with C and D. The both share a win with your number 5, while C has a win over #1, and D has a second win over #4. Mate, can you not see the flaw in your arguement?
Who cares if you were discussing B? You said B....don't blame me for taking something you mention 2 times in your post out of context. You placed it in the wrong context. Take responsibility for it and stop trying to say someone else took it wrong. You placed "B" in that post 2 times and "C" was only mentioned in the end. Considering the context of the conversation and the fact that we are discussing a difference in rankings, I assumed you meant what you said. That's your issue not mine.
I know exactly what you are saying in your arguement and the steps you have taken to come to that conclusion. However, I feel I have taken a more mathematical approach to reaching my conclusion. I can see where you are coming from though, and why you reached the final rankings you did.
Ask yourself that! That is the approach you took to come to the conclusion that C should be rated so lowly!
I could see what you meant, and the approach you took the second I read your arguement. I felt it was flawed which is why I countered with mine. I still haven't seen a specific counter of yours that I could not answer.
You think your approach is mathematical, but it isn't. If you were to look at the displacements from form according to your ranking, and then compared them to the displacements according to my ranking, you would realise that your ranking required MORE strange things to happen than mine...that is maths, mate!:deal
I never said it was not my fault! It was clearly my fault. But the point is that you insinuated that I meant to use B in that situation, when it was clearly an honest mistake.
The reason why it took me 30 minutes is because I actually calculated the displacements and came to the conclusion that my ranking causes least disturbance...you haven't. Give it a try and you will convince yourself. I cannot explain the case more clearly than I have already, in the various posts, including my initial explanation. Sorry. Take it easy, bro!:good
